4. The shire of No osa is a special and quite unique region.
Most of       .                    - -etIf fellow local residents
would agree that we are all so fortunate to live in this part of
the Sunshine Coast because the Council has consistently taken
an admirable stance against over-development and protecting
the local environment and people. This is an approach that we
are all so proud of and which sets us apart from the rest of the
coast. Therefore, if this development application gains
approval from Council, our pride and trust will be diminished.

5. There are multiple criteria pertaining to The Noosa Plan
which have to be fulfilled in order that a development
application gains Council approval. We understand that this
application may well be consistent with most of the criteria,
but we would nonetheless argue that NOT ALL of them have
been met in this instance (please refer to the extensive
submission from our parent-group which has been/will be
lodged prior to December 18th 2015). And relevant to this
petition, we note that in section 326(l)(b) of the Sustainable
Planning Act 2009 (Qld) , "an assessment manager may
refuse an application, even though the proposed development
complies with the relevant instruments if there are sufficient
grounds for refusing the development..." . The term "grounds"
is outlined in the SPA as including matters of public interest.
This petition demonstrates a significant representation of
public interest.
